Delivering gentle fine line-reducing benefits, the Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3 Serum is an advanced retinaldehyde formula that protects from the noticeable signs of ageing. Powered by 0.03% stabilised retinal, the treatment is suitable for beginners and those with sensitive skin thanks to a blend of nourishing actives and time-release encapsulation technology.
The fast-acting form of vitamin A is known for its skin-smoothing effect and potent renewing properties. Paired with hyaluronic acid, glycerin and vitamin E, the serum diminishes the look of uneven texture, dullness and discolouration to promote the illusion of enhanced elasticity and bounce. Dermatologist recommended, the innovative Crystal Retinal collection features a unique ladder of five progressive strengths (0.01 - 0.1%) to ensure optimal results at every level of your retinaldehyde journey.

Step 1: After cleansing in the evening, apply 2 pumps of Crystal Retinal to the face and neck. Allow to absorb then follow with a moisturiser.
Step 2: For new users of Crystal Retinal, phase application in gradually. Use twice a week for the first 2 weeks, every other night for the next 2 weeks, then every night. You should always use a sunscreen the next morning after using vitamin A.
NOTE: Ladder up your visible age-defying results over time with Crystal Retinal's 5 progressive strengths (0.01% - 0.1% retinaldehyde). For those with very sensitive skin, we recommend starting with Crystal Retinal 1 (0.01%). However, most Crystal Retinal and vitamin A beginners start on Crystal Retinal 3 (0.03%). If you're an experienced vitamin A user already, start at Crystal Retinal 6 (0.06%) before working your way up to Crystal Retinal 10 (0.1%).

I have only been using this product for a short time but my skin already looks fresher and is much softer. I will definitely buy this product.

Sensitive dry skin prone to eczema flare ups
Fantastic product. It smells beautiful and absorbs into the skin with no issues. Packaging is very convenient and user friendly. Since you only need a tiny amount, this will last a very long time. I have dry sensitive skin and have no issues using this product. My skin texture has noticeably improved and feels smoother.

Gold standard
This serum is one of the closest you will get to prescription tretinoin. I’m a skin therapist and I recommended this to my mum who is 60, to use on a night and the medik8 c15 in the morning with spf and her skin has gotten a lot brighter and smoother. The reinAl is better than traditional retinOl as its less irritating and is more effective.

Great product
Medik8 has such a good reputation I was looking forward to trying this product. I was previously using one from the Ordinary and wanted to change up to see if I could get a better result with a more expensive option. To be honest I’m not sure I’ve seen any difference result wise but I’ve only been using it a few weeks so I’m still open minded and hoping for an improved result.

Medik8
Fits try with a retinol product and really like it. Had no redness or patchiness yet and am using three times a week as in my thirties and following Caroline Hirons advice. Also find the packaging clever - it pumps out just right amount each time, so no waste etc. Would highly recommend. Skin looking fab!
